Have you ever thought about how buildings are like humans? For humans to function properly a complex set of body systems have to integrate and work together as a whole. Our bodies must be able to respond and adapt to changing internal and external conditions, produce and efficiently use onsite energy, be resilient and even age gracefully. The approach to Whole Building Design treats buildings as if they were bodies that require an integrated team approach to design and develop coordinated systems to achieve sustainability, energy efficiency and true universal accessibility. This course will look at some successful and not so successful design approaches to integrating and powering the body of a truly universal building to create healthy structures, happier clients and a better world for everyone.

We will also explore unexpected sources of information to help you gain insight into what your clients are looking for and shed light on the story, the Why, underpinning these design trends.

Buildings are for People offers a new approach to the process of conceiving architectural design that considers the interactions of the built environment with people and the natural environment. The text is supported by detailed examples of recently built buildings that fail to meet their intended goals, as well as examples of buildings that do. Discussions include the author's firsthand experience with some such buildings, considered from the human and environmental perspectives, through the lenses of engineering and architecture. The book takes a realistic look at the foundations of the architectural industry, its educational system, institutions and practitioners, exposing roadblocks to successful design. It provides a well-researched and constructive critique, with a methodology to effect a positive change. Furthermore, it brings awareness of the obstacles to successful design, including issues in education, the profession, regulation and the industry's institutions.

Housing is rapidly having to adapt to the global changes of the twenty-first century. These include the transformation of the family and the rise of the non-traditional household, increases in construction costs, and concerns over climate change and the depletion of natural resources. Designing residential environments that address these issues is an urgent priority. “Innovative Houses” examines the latest residential design trends that have arisen in response to these challenges. Divided into four broad areas, tightly focused thematic chapters look at twenty discrete topics, such as live/work; adaptable housing; prefabrication; water efficiency; green roofs; and innovative landscaping.
AIA- and IDCEC- approved HSW credits.
